Brief Summary
This is a prospective, multi-center, Phase II study of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) using human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mismatched unrelated donors (MMUD) for peripheral blood stem cell transplant in adults and bone marrow stem cell transplant in children. Post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy), tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) will be used for for graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. This trial will study how well this treatment works in patients with hematologic malignancies.

Interventions
Given IV or PO pre-transplant as part of conditioning regimen
Given IV pre-transplant as part of conditioning regimen
Administered pre-transplant as part of conditioning regimen
Given IV pre-transplant as part of conditioning regimen
Given IV pre-transplant as part of conditioning regimen
Peripheral blood stem cell graft is infused from a mismatched unrelated donor on Day 0.
Bone marrow graft is infused from a mismatched unrelated donor on Day 0.
Cyclophosphamide (50 mg/kg) is administered on Day +3 and on Day +4 post-transplant as an IV infusion over 1-2 hours.
Mesna is given in divided doses IV 30 min pre- and at 3, 6, and 8 hours post-cyclophosphamide.
Tacrolimus is given at a dose of 0.05 mg/kg PO or an IV dose of 0.03 mg/kg of ideal body weight (IBW) starting on Day +5 post-transplant with taper recommended at 90-100 days post HCT.
Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is given at a dose of 15 mg/kg three times daily IV or PO from Day +5 to Day +35 post-transplant.
Survey assessments will be administered to study participants pre- and post-transplant.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age \> 18 years and \< 66 years (chemotherapy-based conditioning) or \< 61 years (total body irradiation \[TBI\]-based conditioning) at the time of signing informed consent
- Planned MAC regimen as defined per protocol
- Available partially HLA-MMUD (4/8-7/8 at HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DRB1 is required) with age \< 35 years

- HCT Comorbidity Index (HCT-CI) \< 5
- One of the following diagnoses:
- Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), or other acute leukemia in 1st remission or beyond with ≤ 5% marrow blasts and no circulating blasts or evidence of extra-medullary disease. Documentation of bone marrow assessment will be accepted within 45 days prior to the anticipated start of conditioning.
- Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with no circulating blasts and with \< 10% blasts in the bone marrow (higher blast percentage allowed in MDS due to lack of differences in outcomes with \< 5% or 5-10% blasts in MDS). Documentation of bone marrow assessment will be accepted within 45 days prior to the anticipated start of conditioning.
- Cardiac function: Left ventricular ejection fraction \> 45% based on most recent echocardiogram or multigated acquisition scan (MUGA) results
- Estimated creatinine clearance \> 60 mL/min calculated by equation
- Pulmonary function: diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO) corrected for hemoglobin \> 50% and forced expiratory volume in first second (FEV1) predicted \> 50% based on most recent pulmonary function test results
- Liver function acceptable per local institutional guidelines
- Karnofsky performance status (KPS) of \> 70%
- Subjects ≥ 18 years of age or legally authorized representative must have the ability to give informed consent according to applicable regulatory and local institutional requirements.
- Age \> 18 years at the time of signing informed consent
- +38 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Suitable HLA-matched related or 8/8 high-resolution matched unrelated donor available
- Subject unwilling or unable to give informed consent, or unable to comply with the protocol including required follow-up and testing
- Primary myelofibrosis or myelofibrosis secondary to essential thrombocythemia, polycythemia vera, or MDS with grade 4 marrow fibrosis
- Subjects with a prior allogeneic HSC transplant
- Subjects with an autologous HSC transplant within the past 3 months
- Females who are breast-feeding or pregnant
- Uncontrolled bacterial, viral or fungal infection at the time of the transplant preparative regimen
- Concurrent enrollment on other interventional GVHD clinical trial (enrollment on supportive care trials may be allowed after discussion with Principal Investigators)
- Subjects who undergo desensitization to reduce anti-donor HLA antibody levels prior to transplant.
- Patients who are HIV+ with persistently positive viral load. HIV-infected patients on effective anti-retroviral therapy with undetectable viral load within 6 months are eligible for this trial.
- Donor unwilling or unable to donate
- Recipient positive anti-donor HLA antibodies against a mismatched HLA in the selected donor determined by the presence of donor specific HLA antibodies (DSA) to any mismatched HLA allele/antigen at any of the following loci (HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, DRB3, DRB4, DRB5, -DQA1, -DQB1, -DPA1, -DPB1) with median fluorescence intensity (MFI) \>3000 by microarray-based single antigen bead testing. In patients receiving red blood cell or platelet transfusions, DSA evaluation must be performed or repeated post-transfusion and prior to donor mobilization and initiation of recipient preparative regimen.
